resort to childish name calling, it's because they've lost the argument.
Regarding Lebron, you made comments about his "spelling & grammar" proficiency among other things, and I informed you that black people almost universally find those remarks to be condescending and racist. I even linked an article explaining their rationale for that, to help you evolve and avoid making similar remarks in the future.
The basic premise is that only someone with an extremely low (stereotypical) opinion of black people would say a non-intellectual like Lebron "seems really smart", compliment his spelling & grammar, etc... You wouldn't have made those remarks if Lebron were white; you wouldn't be saying how impressed you are by statements like "two teams that's fighting for one common goal" and "I want the ball in my hands late in the game, tie game, being up, being down", etc.
The irony, of course, is that you ignorantly suggested that anyone NOT making these condescending "well spoken"-type remarks are the prejudiced ones, when in fact the opposite is true.
